Hmm, I'm not sure about this one. The question mentions supporting fast secure roaming, so I'm wondering if a WIPS sensor software on a laptop might be a better choice to analyze the roaming process in detail.

A protocol analyzer with multiple adapters? Now that's what I call a 'wireless Swiss Army knife'! Too bad it doesn't come with a mini-fondue set.

Oooh, a mobile cart with a monitor mode AP, that's a creative idea! Might be a bit bulky, though. I'm still leaning towards the protocol analyzer.
